“That makes sense.”

“`

“`

The convoy did not enter the ruins but slowed down on the main road outside.

“`

“`

“Let Gao Rong direct us. We need to get back before dark,” said Wu Heng.

“`

“`

Qi Hancai picked up the walkie-talkie and asked, “Gao Rong, which way to the station?”

“`

“`

Over the walkie-talkie, Gao Rong’s voice ca through, “At the crossroad up ahead turn left, then just drive forward and you’ll see the station.”

“`

“`

Qi Hancai then ordered, “Follow Gao Rong’s directions.”

“`

“`

The convoy began to turn left and continued forward.

“`

“`

A dense Skeleton Army followed behind, while large numbers of the Blood Clan Skeletons flew around the convoy.

“`

“`

They hurried forward.

“`

“`

The location of the convoy was not too far; after about ten minutes’ drive, they saw a makeshift building.

“`

“`

There was no danger inside the building. Passing through the hall, the train tracks were visible.

“`

“`

As well as the rescue team’s train.

“`

“`

Everyone had a deep mory of this train, as the first train in Xinfu City was greatly modified on the basis of this one.

“`

“`

The tal plates were thickened, and it even had an exaggerated battering ram at the front.

“`

“`

Now that the rescue team had left, this train had beco their trophy.

“`

“`

“Check the train’s condition and search for any supplies nearby,” Wu Heng ordered.

“`

“`

Everyone imdiately sprang into action, inspecting the vehicles and confirming if any supplies had been left in several warehouses.

“`

“`

Wu Heng, along with so Skeletons, looked around the area.

“`

“`

Qi Hancai ca back from outside and reported, “No problems with the train; the warehouses just have so equipnt and tools, nothing special.”

“`

“`

“I’ll leave so Skeletons here to take control of this place. Subsequent transports can be conducted via the railway,” Wu Heng decided.

“`

“`

“Alright,” Qi Hancai nodded.

“`

“`

Once everything was confird,

“`

“`

Wu Heng arranged for so Skeletons to guard the place.

“`

“`

Everyone got back in their vehicles and returned to the military factory base.

“`

“`

Upon arriving at the military factory,

“`

“`

everyone busied themselves with their tasks while Wu Heng returned to his dormitory and went through the boundary door.

“`

“`

…

Island Master’s Manor.

“`

“`

After dinner with the maids,

“`

“`

Wu Heng went back upstairs to his study.

“`

“`

Glenda was editing drafts at the desk while Xiao Xiao watched cartoons nearby, giggling foolishly.

“`

“`

Wu Heng poured himself a cup of tea and walked over to peek at Xiao Xiao’s cartoons, “You’ve seen these so many tis, and you’re still so fond of them!”

“`

“`

“I got Auntie Yahong to download new cartoons for . She said she’d bring them next ti she cos,” said Xiao Xiao.

“`

“`

“You sure know how to arrange things,” Wu Heng sat down beside her, then asked, “Xiao Xiao, do you have any wishes?”

“`

“`

Xiao Xiao had reached level 18 and needed to find a way to address her “Unfinished Wish.”

“`

“`

“Wishes? None. I’m pretty happy with how things are right now,” Xiao Xiao pondered before replying.

“`

“`

Wu Heng’s eyebrow quirked.

“`

“`

But that won’t do!

“`

“`

“Didn’t you say last ti that you wanted a huge pink bear plush and have a Skeleton inside it to act as your bodyguard?” Wu Heng pointed out.

“`

“`

“That’s too childish, I was just saying that off the top of my head,” replied Xiao Xiao.

“`

“`

Wu Heng took a sip of tea. “Xiao Xiao, you’ve leveled up to 18. Uncle will definitely fulfill one of your wishes, just like we did for Auntie Glenda last ti. Think it over.”

“`

“`

Glenda looked up at them for a mont before returning her focus to her editing.

“`

“`

After so thought, Xiao Xiao asked, “Can you bring my dad and grandpa back to life?”

“`

“`

Uh…

“`

“`

“That… I don’t have the ability to do that. Think of sothing simpler,” Wu Heng said imdiately.

“`

“`

Xiao Xiao’s father and grandfather had already beco zombies when Wu Heng t them.

“`

“`

They later attacked him and were killed by Skeletons, transforming into Skeletons themselves; after that, it beca unclear which Skeletons they had beco, possibly shattered to pieces in battle with the zombies.

“`

“`

And even if they could be identified, there was no way to bring them back to life.

“`

“`

“Then I really don’t have any other wishes. As long as we can be together in the future, that’s enough. After Uncle and my mom die, we can all beco Ghosts together,” Xiao Xiao said.

“`

“`

From not too far away, Glenda remarked, “Your uncle can’t die; we are hosted in his body. When the ti cos, just do the Corpse Ghost ceremony since the whole island is yours.”

“`

“`

“Thank you both for thinking so far ahead,” said Wu Heng sowhat speechlessly.

“`

“`

How did the conversation turn to the point where they were planning his own afterlife?

“`

“`

“Hehe~!” Xiao Xiao giggled and then flew off with her tablet, as if to keep from disturbing Wu Heng.

“`

“`

Wu Heng watched Xiao Xiao, pondering in his heart.

“`

“`

Glenda’s “Unfinished Wish” could be confird to be about her forr husband.

“`

“`

And for Xiao Xiao, the chances were high that it involved her mother.

“`

“`

His only living relative.

“`

“`

He definitely couldn’t turn her mother into a Ghost but could give her more attention.

“`

“`

A better life, perhaps, or support in so aspects.

“`

“`

After so contemplation,

“`

“`

the two Ghosts had their own matters to attend to, so he returned to his room to rest.

“`

“`

…

Zombie World.

“`

“`

Military factory, radio room.

“`

“`

Qi Hancai sat on the chair, her booted legs resting on the edge of the table.

“`

“`

A staff mber responsible for the radio had finished adjusting it and said, “Sister Qi, we have entered the Gaohe City frequency band.”

“`

“`

Various snippets of casual conversation ca through inside the radio.

“`

“`

Qi Hancai sat up and took the microphone.

“`

“`

After clearing her throat, she spoke in a deep voice, “This is Xinfu City Base.”

“`

“`

As soon as her voice rang out, the entire radio room fell silent.

“`

“`

All the chatter ceased.

“`

“`

Qi Hancai continued, “We will head to ‘Gaohe City’ for a rescue mission the day after tomorrow.

“`

“`

All bases and survivors who hear this ssage, please be sure to prepare for the following conditions:

“`

“`

1. If you encounter Skeletons in Battle Armor wielding weapons, do not panic; these are our leader’s superpowered soldiers and form the main combat force of our base.

“`

“`

2. Do not, under any circumstances, attack or provoke the Skeletons, or you will be attacked.”
